Indian forces have been deployed to thwart the Jamia Masjid Chalo and other protest marches in the occupied territory.
Authorities have also launched a massive crackdown across Chinab valley and Jammu region against those who recently took part in the peaceful protest demonstrations to denounce civilian killings in the Occupied Kashmir.
Dozens of people, mostly students including medical students have been arrested during college and house raids in past few days. Most of the students arrested during the raids belonged to Acharya Shri Chander College of Medical Sciences (ASCOMS) Sidhra. The students’ parents said that their wards were being falsely implicated and the authorities were spoiling the career of Muslim students in the region.
Meanwhile, the Chairperson of Muslim Khawteen Markaz, Yasmeen Raja in a statement, while expressing concern over the attitude of authorities with Kashmiri students, has strongly condemned the arrest of innocent youth and students in Jammu region.
The Executive Director of Kashmir Centre London, Professor Nazir Ahmed Shawl, has said that the UK-based Kashmiris will observe India’s Independence Day (August 15) as Black Day.
Professor Nazir Ahmed Shawl, in a statement issued in London, said that Kashmiris would hold a demonstration outside the Indian High Commission in London. He said, “It is the most appropriate time when world conscience should respond to existing pain in the occupied territory and stand by the side of justice, civil liberties and basic human rights.”
Professor Nazir Ahmed Shawl has called upon all the Kashmiris living in the United Kingdom to massively join the demonstration to express solidarity with the suffering brethren in occupied Kashmir.
